I will be on vacation in London for the Grand Prix of Italy on Sept 12th. Were is a good place to watch the race? My train arrives at Kings Crossing around 1:30 so I won't have a lot of time to get anywhere but since I've never been to England before I have no idea how easily it is to move around the city.

Thanks,
Jason

Jason, there's a sports bar (called, ehm, the Sports Bar I think) just off Piccadilly on Haymarket. Take the south-bound tube (Piccadilly line) from King's Cross station to the Piccadilly stop (5 stops from KC) and walk to a big side street called Haymarket. The Sports Bar is at the very end of the street on the right, you can't miss it and people will be able to direct you to it. It's about a 5 min walk from Piccadilly.

However, as England is in a time zone that's one hour behind continental Europe, you will find that the GP will start at 13.00 English time (14.00 Monza time) so you will have to be very quick to catch the tail end of the race if you only arrive at 13.30. Good luck and enjoy!
